    Summary

    Doflamingo’s mouth went dry. Rosi straightened, hands behind his back, as if he were about to start rocking on his heels. He looked exactly the same as when Doflamingo had last seen him. Sweat and dirt-stained, clothes worn, that thumbprint of their father’s blood at the corner of his chin from where Doflamingo had touched him.

    Rationally, it couldn't have been real. He still surveyed the islands across the North Blue and kept a tap on the local news, but had long stopped expecting anything. It had been seven years after all. At this point, Rosi was either dead or didn’t want to be found.

    “No,” Doflamingo growled, “No, no, you don’t get to do this to me.”

    i.e. That one world in ten billion where Doflamingo tries really damn hard. And it's no prettier world by far. A tale of madness, blood and two brothers searching for each other in the dark. [An AU retelling of the Donquixote brothers]

    Reincarnation, she thinks, would be a lot more interesting if she were not predestined to die.

    Summary

    The man grunts as he rolls off of you. “Argh. You wretched little–”

    Your mind is wracked with pain, with flashes of memory that you can’t place. A previous life? You’re not sure. But after the sting of your heads colliding, this strain is too much for your mind to bear. Your vision teeters, hanging on by a single thread, all that’s left are that man’s intense red eyes.

    You emerge from your trance with a shaky breath. You reach for your throat, as if to make sure that it’s still in one piece, only to find it coated in a thin sheen of sweat.

    What was that.

    ___

    You saved Baldur’s Gate almost 300 years ago. You died 150 years ago. On a new life now, you find that memories from your past lead you to a specific silver-haired man. Who was he, and why won't he leave you be?

    tldr; An Elf-Tav reincarnation story where Tav dreams about Astarion in their nightly reveries and eventually seeks him out once they reach maturity. Things definitely totally go well.

    Summary

    You’re drunk on a mystery potion, confessing feelings that just don’t make any sense to Astarion.

    ***
    Preview:

    Astarion put a hand on each of your shoulders to steady you. With you so disoriented, it would be easy to use you as a late-night snack. Your neck was bare and unguarded. If he’d been in this situation with you a few weeks ago, he probably wouldn’t have even wasted time deliberating. He would have just taken you.

    He sucked in a breath and resolved himself. Not tonight, not like this.
